That's a good observation.

So, rather than yield to the prevalence of that, it may start with recognizing what you pointed out, first, and in larger numbers.

Then, we might pull back and be a bit more mindful about our approach. If the stakes were not so ridiculously high, then taking a new or better approach might be along the lines of a mere preference. However, that is not the case at all.

I would say that focus, determination, adaptability and flexibility are good traits to cultivate and talk about. Really, the Darwinian perspective is that the most adaptable species survive, that is what makes them fit. I think our party has a better chance at that and we can utilize it to its utmost if we decide to engage that way.

It is also a dialogue and higher degree of relevant interactivity that may be crucial factors these days.
